ACT 3 - MISSION 41
Fighter squadron: 74th Templars
Description: Defend the EACa Virgil from the Shivans as it completes its final retrofit into a kamikaze.
Background
The EACa Virgil has reached Periphery Installation, Vega, and its refit is nearly complete, but it has come under Shivan attack from portions of the Anathema fleet. The Virgil needs spare parts to finish repairing its engines after the beating it took in Canto I. Three support ships and a transport are en route to complete the final repairs. The squad has to protect the ships carrying the parts and keep the Virgil safe while the final repairs are underway.
Walkthrough
Alpha and Crux wings are there to fly intercept, and Beta's bombers are on standby in case the Shivans deploy heavier units. Guard each support ship (Sigma 1, 2 and 3) as it warps in and lands in the Virgil's hangar, and then guard Omega 1 as it docks with the Virgil. This should be a relatively easy mission, as long as you focus on the bombers. When the SC Aatish warps in, snipe the main beam cannon, and let Beta's bombers do the rest.
After all four sets of parts have been delivered, the Virgil warps out. Follow it in to subspace.
Notes
- Virgil, writer of "The Aeneid," was the Roman poet who was Dante's guide through Hell in "Inferno," the first part of Dante's "Divine Comedy."
